clone: refuse to clone if --branch points to bogus ref
It's possible that users make a typo in the branch name. Stop and let users recheck. Falling back to remote's HEAD is not documented any way. Except when using remote helper, the pack has not been transferred at this stage yet so we don't waste much bandwidth.
